Real Alternative 2.0.2

Really, not so good. I discovered that in order to play MovieLink downloads I had purchased, I had to update $RealPlayer$, except $Real Player$ was wiped off my system in the install of MPC.

Now I am searching the system for the uninstall program for MPC, so I can reinstall $$$RealPlayer$$$.

So MPC works fine, but the lack of an uninstall, and the inability to mimic $$RealPlayer$$ to MovieLink are definite drawbacks.

Could anyone make a plugin for VLC Media Player?

If you encounter the msg "cannot render the file" when trying to play real media in Media Player Classic, rename the extension of the downloaded file .ram by .smil

Hope this is the right place to post a suggestion. Posted this in relivant areas

I've been using RA, QA MPc and VLC and G-Spot and Audio Identifier for some time now, ever since i came accross them eons ago. With this tools I am able to watch and listen to, I would say 95% of all formats (mainstream).

Is it possible to save a single installer for these items with option to pick and choose? Especially with QA and RA as I have noticed they both duplicate MPc (but in RA MPc is one version behind. VLC is a bonus as is the two codec identifiers.

QA QuickTime Alternative
MPc Media Player Classic
VLC VideoLAN Client

Thanks

Well i like it a lot, it's definetly better than real player but why only mpc?
mpc kinda $uck$, i have to "fight" the pc for hours to get it to work on a level i actualy enjoy.
Is there any way to get it to work for any other player like vlc?

I am not looking for another media player though. I am using a software with its own data base and that software has some media files in .RM (real media) format, but it is configured to play these files using Windows Media Player. The software comes with some updates to install required codecs for WMP to run .RM files. It does not work though. The reason is that i am using win xp with WMP 10 and it is not supported by that software. I know that someone has downloaded a codec to play these files in the same environment, but unfortunately i am not able to contact this person. Can any one help in paying these .rm files on win media player ver 10?

Would greatly appreciate your help.

It won't stream files, which is a big drawback for me. A few times I would actually have to use RealPlayer to handle those files. It is okay for offline content though, because you can still play them on Windows Media Player or Media Player Classic. Still, this is nowhere as good as how Quicktime Alternative performed.
